(1): total sample, (2): fertility cohort (female age 19–39) and (3): fertility subsample (Those among fertility cohort who had pregnancy between current and next survey. For example, (3) for 2007: 2007; (3) for 2008: 2008 and 2009). Fertility subsample of the fourth survey includes those who are pregnant at the time of the survey. Omitted entries are either omitted by definition or because there are too few observations to be meaningful
